Origin
Meaning and history of Aquavion
The name Aquavion is a relatively modern invention, likely derived from a combination of the Latin words "aqua" meaning water and "avion" meaning aircraft or flight. This suggests the name may have been created in the 20th century, perhaps inspired by the development of aircraft technology and the idea of soaring through the skies like a bird gliding over water.
While the name itself does not have a long historical lineage, its components can be traced back to ancient roots. The Latin word "aqua" is found in classical texts and literature, referencing the life-giving essence of water. The word "avion" has its origins in the French language, stemming from the Latin word "avis" meaning bird, which eventually evolved to describe mechanical flight.
There are no known historical figures or notable individuals from ancient times bearing the name Aquavion. However, here are five individuals who have carried this unique name in more recent history:
1. Aquavion Simmons, an American football player born in 1995, who played as a defensive back for the University of Oklahoma.
2. Aquavion Hunter, an American singer and songwriter born in 1988, known for his work in the R&B and neo-soul genres.
3. Aquavion Jones, an American actress born in 1982, who has appeared in several television shows and films.
4. Aquavion Mitchell, an American painter born in 1975, whose works have been exhibited in galleries across the United States.
5. Aquavion Davis, an American author born in 1968, who has written several children's books and young adult novels.
While the name Aquavion may not have a rich historical legacy, its unique blend of linguistic elements and its association with modern concepts such as flight and water make it an intriguing and imaginative choice for naming a child in the contemporary era.

FAQ
Aquavion: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Aquavion?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 5 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Aquavion going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 68,550,868 US residents.
Is Aquavion a common name?
We classify Aquavion as "Very Rare". It ranks above 18.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 5 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Aquavion most popular?
The single biggest year for Aquavion was 2004, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Aquavion is about 22 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Aquavion in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Aquavion a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Aquavion in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Aquavion still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Aquavion in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Aquavion can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
